Namespace: Microsoft.SqlServer.NotificationServices
Assembly: Microsoft.SqlServer.NotificationServices (in microsoft.sqlserver.notificationservices.dll)
Syntax
'Declaration
Public Function GetFieldOrdinal ( _
fieldName As String _
) As Integer
public int GetFieldOrdinal (
string fieldName
)
public:
virtual int GetFieldOrdinal (
String^ fieldName
) sealed
public final int GetFieldOrdinal (
String fieldName
)
public final function GetFieldOrdinal (
fieldName : String
) : int
Parameters
- fieldName
The name of the event field for which you want the ordinal returned.
Return Value
An integer representing the zero-based field ordinal.
Example
The following examples show how to use the GetFieldOrdinal method to get the ordinal of an event field by providing the field name.
These examples use the Microsoft.SqlServer.NotificationServices namespace.
Dim instanceName As String = "MyInstanceName"
Dim applicationName As String = "MyApplicationName"
Dim eventClassName As String = "MyEventClassName"
Dim fieldName As String = "MyEventFieldName"
'Create an NSInstance object.
Dim myInstance As New NSInstance(instanceName)
'Create an NSApplication object.
Dim myApplication As New NSApplication(myInstance, applicationName)
'Create an Event object.
Dim myEvent As New Microsoft.SqlServer.NotificationServices.Event( _
myApplication, eventClassName)
'Use the GetFieldOrdinal method to get a field ordinal.
Dim fieldOrdinal As Integer = myEvent.GetFieldOrdinal(fieldName)
string instanceName = "MyInstanceName";
string applicationName = "MyApplicationName";
string eventClassName = "MyEventClassName";
string fieldName = "MyEventFieldName";
//Create an NSInstance object.
NSInstance myInstance = new NSInstance(instanceName);
//Create an NSApplication object.
NSApplication myApplication =
new NSApplication(myInstance, applicationName);
//Create an Event object.
Event myEvent = new Event(myApplication, eventClassName);
//Use the GetFieldOrdinal method to get a field ordinal.
int fieldOrdinal = myEvent.GetFieldOrdinal(fieldName);
